2008-05-05 12:03:32 by Chris Eng in Zero in a bit
...funny things for Dilbert to say My next thought was just that some developer just forgot to call urlDecode() or whatever the Flash equivalent is on the user-supplied punch line. Except thats an oversimplication because: 1) it doesnt happen on every strip, 2) the web server usually strips off the first layer of URL encoding so the backend...

Book Review: The Pragmatic CSO

2008-01-02 15:24:45 by RSnake in ha.ckers.org web application security lab
 
...funny, and knowledgeable about security. I consider Mike to be a friend, so it wasnt a surprise that he would send me an autographed copy of his self published book (which you will not find on Amazon or B&N). Trust me, that didnt influence my opinion one way or another, but the inscription was definitely nice. What did influence my opinion of...

Innovative spam subject lines

2007-08-19 23:16:14 by Steve Riley in Steve Riley on Security
 
...funny to read, though. My favorite is the second one.

Cool Oh, for all you code geeks out there: what's a conditional iterative...

Playing With Homemade Explosives

2007-08-07 17:30:00 by Eric Marvets in The Security Samurai
 
...funny the safety controls I employed at age 12. My love of danger was superseded by my desire to live and stay out of trouble. For example, one of the first things I learned was remote detonation systems. The first one I employed was a catapult, built from popsicle sticks, a metal spoon, and rubber bands which could launch a cotton ball...

FaxBox: the latest in password scams

2008-01-07 18:09:34 by Steve Riley in Steve Riley on Security
 
...Funny, isn't it, how you can just change your name and suddenly all your past sins evaporate! Well, not on the Internet, apparently. Your past sins can and do come back to haunt you When you sign up for FaxBox, they ask for your permission to email everyone in your address book (FanBox knows how to talk to most webmail systems). To do this,...
